Yael Ezerzer is an artist based in Tiohtià:ke / Montréal exploring images and the relationship between cycles, process and the temporal. Working primarily with photography, video, and installation, she delves into themes of continuous happening, informed by light and the ordinary. She most recently completed her BFA in Photography at Concordia University (2023) and has shown her work in spaces around Montréal, including Eastern Bloc (2020), Galerie POPOP (2020), and Maison de la Culture Janine Sutto (2023).
Working primarily through photography, video and installation, my work explores the perception of light, life cycles, and the passage of time. My practice insists on revelation, possibilities reveal themselves through process. I draw from the familiar, the ordinary; in order to dissect the process of creation and transformation of object, image, environment and self. Through this, I look to explore and further question rather than conclude. Dedicated to the continual exploration of these themes, my practice actively seeks to unfold a series of possibilities, proposing multiple perspectives. The artworks themselves serve as the residue or fossil of this process, tangible reflections of the relationship between repetition, cycles, and the inevitable rebirth that marks the passage of time. Each piece becomes an exploration, inviting the viewer to contemplate the familiar, the rhythmic patterns, and the enduring nature of transformation.
